The Okey Dokey from Kawasaki Aus...

Post by MadKaw »

I sent an e-mail to Mark Barnett at Kawasaki Australia this afternoon to see what their thoughts are on us using the name Kawasaki..
A very prompt and supportive reply was received, as below...

Hi Dave,

Logo looks good, please feel free to use the name Kawasaki in this way.

I'm glad you guys are out there in support of a company that does care
about its customer base - keep up the good work.

Cheers,

Mark Barnett

It's good to know we aren't doing anything that's going to get anyone in trouble...

His name appears on the Kawasaki Riders Club letters also, the club run by Kawasaki itself, I think he used to be a journo at TW before going ot Kwaka.

Also, good onya Dave !

I am actually not surprised we got a positive response. You just need to get the right person excited about what you are doing...and suddenly the doors open.

Good work!
